As you may know, traveling these days during Covid-19 is not an easy thing. Europe is on lockdown, many countries in the GCC are not even accepting visitors & it is becoming challenging to travel to any part of the world. So, I left with limited options and Egypt was among them.
I decided to plan a short trip to the White Desert, located at Al Farafra depression, 500km away from Cairo. The White Desert, a dramatic chalk landscape in western Egypt that offers a surreal landscape. Millions of years ago the desert was a seabed. Layers of sedimentary rock were exposed when the ocean retreated and a plateau broke down. A natural rock formation open air museum was left behind.
The Western Desert will make you feel like you’ve landed on the surface of the moon. Incredible chalk rock formations and some stones formations resisted time’s changes, giving the White Desert its distinct features and unique look and picturistique.
